[Greg Ross]

V2.13 of the BASIC Stamp Preprocessor adds the capability of C style continued source file lines.

Normally, a PBASIC command is required to be on a single line. You are now able to continue lines (as in C) by ending the line with a backslash character. (If you should need to end a line with a backslash but need the next line to not be appended, you may "escape the escape character" by doubling the backslash.)

Example:
(The following code snippet may look vaguely familiar -- yet somehow different. )

'  Serin COMA\COMB, INBAUD,
'        [ oi_swA,   oi_swB,     rc_swA,  rc_swB,
'          p2_x,     p1_x,       p4_x,    p3_x,
'          PB_mode,  packet_num, sensor1, sensor2,
'          p2_y,     p1_y,       sensor3, sensor4,
'          p4_y,     p3_y,       sensor5, sensor6,
'          p2_wheel, p1_wheel,   sensor7, bat_volt,
'          p4_wheel, p3_wheel,   p2_aux,  p1_aux,
'          p4_aux,   p3_aux,     delta_t, res01 ]
'
